Bombers felled
The biggest upset of the weekend would have to have been the Western Wolves 27 point win over Sydney University Bombers. It was the Bombers first loss since Round 5, 2013- a stretch of 29 consecutive wins, that included the 2013 and 2014 Womens’ First Grade premierships.
Demons brotherhood
Danny was alerted this week of an alarming similarity between Pennant Hills’ teammates, Tom Angel and Seb Parker (left). A bit of Where’s Wally in Seb Parker’s look if you ask me.
Hardly Regal
East Coast Eagles Division One star, Jimmy Regan has been working tirelessly all week, month and year to try and replace himself at the top of the highly anticipated club scale. This is a social network scale at the club which judges the most embarrassing photo or post during the season. Jimmy is the favourite by far after posting a video of his male friend and himself lip syncing a song from Frozen. He has spent the week taking pictures and documenting what others see as normal acts in a desperate and cringe worthy attempt to try and dethrone himself. Sorry Jim you're in for the long haul.
Mystery Riddle
Danny hears that Holroyd Parramatta first grade are missing the physical presence of Shane Riddle, the aesthetic Adonis, who over the last few years has been collecting a bit of silverware each Presentation Night (we hear he brings a shopping trolley each year). Riddle is yet to strap on the boots this season and his attendances at training have been rarer than unicorn sightings. Within the club there are murmurings that he is taking a year off to focus on a tilt at the Crossfit World Games but the Goanna faithful are hoping he can be persuaded to play in exchange for some breakfast dates at the Paleo Cafe.
Dark day for Green
It was a tough old day on Saturday for Western Suburbs Reserve Grade player, David Green. He copped a stray elbow to be dazed for a while then got back up and continued the game, only to then be hit on the nose a couple minutes later. It is the end of another promising modelling career, but Danny could only help be taken back to Scott Sterling, the goalkeeper who became suffered a similar fate in a soccer shootout.

Groovin the Hugh
Whilst on Wests Reserves, Hugh McLean said he couldn't play on the weekend as he was up the country for a friends birthday. However he was actually at Groovin’ the Moo. Cover your tracks better next time, Hugh.
Lame warm up
Southern Power personality, Jeff O’Sullivan suffered every footballer worst nightmare by getting injured during warm-up. Word is Jeff wasn’t too upset as it gave the perennial socialite time to return to his favourite place, the pub.
Decoy in thick of the action
Finally, Holroyd-Parramatta’s Andrew "Decoy" Grogan was caught admiring his own work at renowned nightspot, Retro on Saturday night. Refusing to shut his eyes he finally got off the mark for the Goannas and now leads Taigen Dubbelde 1-0 in the PDA contest.
